Re: [libreoffice-users] Book Preview button in Print Preview Screen

Hi :)
The list of enhancement requests is not like a waiting list or a queue.  It's more like a pool.  
People pluck out things they like the look of and have a go.  Different people have different 
reasons for liking the look of something.  Some people are looking for "Easy Hacks" while others 
are ready for more of a challenge and that's just 1 aspect.  So, it might be a good plan to 1st 
post the enhancement request and then look around for work-arounds.  

Have you considered 'printing' to file and set the format to PDF?  That might give a result that 
you can hang onto and look through at leisure rather than having to get through it all in one go.  
Regards from
Tom :)
